Orthofix Fully Launches 7D FLASH Navigation System Percutaneous Module 2.0

The 7D FLASH Percutaneous Module 2.0 offers new planning features and more functionality.

Orthofix announced full commercial launch and the first completed U.S. cases with its 7D FLASH Navigation Percutaneous Module 2.0.
 
The Percutaneous Module 2.0 offers new planning features and more functionality for the 7D FLASH navigation system, which the company said can allow it to better serve the minimally invasive surgery (MIS) spine market.
 
“The 7D FLASH Navigation System provides a truly unique offering for both open and MIS procedures enabling us to perform navigated spinal fusion procedures without compromising safety, speed and efficiency,” Dr. Michael Hisey, an orthopedic surgeon at Texas Back Institute, told the press. “The planning features of the Percutaneous Module 2.0 help optimize my navigation workflow and allow me to minimize surgical incisions during MIS procedures.”
 
7D FLASH, which Orthofix gained in a merger deal with SeaSpine completed in January 2023, harnesses visible light to generate a 3D image for surgical navigation in seconds. The image-guidance system combines proprietary, camera-based technology with machine-vision algorithms to remove many long-standing frustrations associated with other surgical navigation platforms, the company says.
 
Machine-vision tech’s speed, accuracy, and efficiency aims to offer significant ergonomic value and lower radiation exposure for staff and patients during open procedures.
 
“We are excited to complete our first cases using the Percutaneous Module 2.0,” said Dr. Beau Standish, president of Global Enabling Technologies at Orthofix. “This launch expands the clinical functionality and utility of the 7D FLASH Navigation System by providing surgeons with a fully integrated procedural solution for MIS, including implant planning and an expanded offering of navigated tools. This new application addresses the important MIS spine navigation market and further positions the 7D FLASH Navigation System to be the navigation choice for a wide range of institutions from teaching hospitals to ambulatory surgery centers.”
